I found an interesting article about marriage and what one church is doing to encourage it.

That church is actively working to get people married.
“That church is actively working to get people married.”
Getting people married and keeping them married are two different things!! Marriage, or Holy Matrimony is a Sacrament, or at least in my church it is. Trouble is most don’t view it this way. Go in marriage only for lust then that marriage is doomed from the beginning. The American Indians did better with arranged marriages because the couple was forced to find favorable attributes in one another. Not so in a culture with no fault divorce.
